> Documents from Russia’s state nuclear corporation show that a new production line at the Alabuga-Volokno plant in Tatarstan could produce up to 500 tons of carbon fiber annually. The material is used in Geran-2 attack-drone airframes, and experts estimate the added capacity could support 28,000 airframes a year. European officials are also warning of increased Russian sabotage and hybrid operations, while a strike on an evacuation center in Kramatorsk injured two people.
